Why the study?
Does heated water-based exercise training reduce 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure levels in resistant hypertensive patients?
Does heated water-based exercise training reduce 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure levels in resistant hypertensive patients?
Heated water-based exercise training effectively reduces both office and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure in patients with resistant hypertension.
Supports heated water-based exercise as adjunctive therapy in resistant hypertension; extends RCT evidence for nonpharmacologic BP lowering.
HEx reduced office BPs and 24-hour ABPM levels in resistant hypertensive patients. These effects suggest that HEx may be a potential new therapeutic approach in these patients.
